    A couple of locally crafted, highly sought after swimbaits. The guy who makes them stays anonymous. He stops by a local tackle
    shop maybe once a year and sells a handful of them to the shop. 


    For the uninitiated, what makes them special? 
    They catch big bass. 
    Can't tell how big the lure is but big baits find huge bass. Return back after locating and toss something else in often works when you now know the hiding place

    It’s been a while since I have been bass fishing but Speckled Trout (near shore saltwater) love big 5 and 6 inch lures. Strangely the larger red drum like smaller baits this time of the year. Elephants eat peanuts 🤷‍♂️

    I know nothing about baking bread or really how it all works but going to give a Detroit Pizza a try in the future as I was gifted a LloydPan for Christmas. I'm not sure what this even is but the recipe called for it.

    PSA right here:  For the first time in several years I needed to extend a rental car agreement by one (1) day.  The upcharge was over 90% of the original 4 day charge.  F'me comes to mind but I had no choice.  Bottom line, if you even think the need will run long, rent long.  FWIW-

    At least when it happened in a prior life I could bill the employer-not so now!

    Costco is a great option for car rentals.  It's almost always cheaper going through them.

    i always have an attack sparrow next to the main entrance to the house, keeps those messy red robins away. the red robins are a pain at camp nesting on the outdoor lights,

    @Canugghead

    I just spatchcocked and cooked my backup Thanksgiving turkey. I think it was 21 lbs. I set it on the concave Atlanta grilling company cutting board that you recommended. It held all of the juice during carving.  I made one mistake. I spun the board around quickly to attack the bird from the opposite side. Centrifugal force spun some of the juices out onto the counter. But that was completely my bad. No pics as I don't really care for Turkey and it was very pedestrian. Mustard binder. Dizzy pig wonderbird seasoning. The meat was good. But in the end... It's just turkey. 

    I really appreciate the recommendation and I am enjoying this cutting board.

    @WeberWho

    It helps give a golden brown color to the crust with a slightly sweet taste.  It also changes the crumb, giving it a finer/even structure.

    That will last you a long time!  I also add it to bread.  I find that it results in a softer/fluffier interior.  Also, it extends shelf life by helping retain moisture, keeping it fresh longer.

    All true. Most bakeries use it as a sweetener without having to add pure sugar.

    @kl8ton Glad you like it. 21lb is a big bird, I usually to 15lb max. Given the hefty weight and rubber feet it's not easy to spin, even a slight tilt can spill the juice. What I really like is the sliced meat soaking in its own juice.  

    You just reminded me to oil mine with mineral oil, nothing fancy.
